The correct Answer is:
To determine under what conditions the statement "Ananya is beautiful or 165 centimetres tall" is false, we will analyze the logical expression and its truth values. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Define the Statements**: - Let \( P \) represent "Ananya is beautiful." - Let \( Q \) represent "Ananya is 165 centimetres tall." 2. **Logical Representation**: - The statement "Ananya is beautiful or 165 centimetres tall" can be represented as \( P \lor Q \) (where \( \lor \) denotes the logical OR). 3. **Truth Table Construction**: - We will create a truth table to analyze the values of \( P \), \( Q \), and \( P \lor Q \). | \( P \) | \( Q \) | \( P \lor Q \) | |---------|---------|-----------------| | True | True | True | | True | False | True | | False | True | True | | False | False | False | 4. **Analyzing the Truth Table**: - From the truth table, we see that \( P \lor Q \) is true in all cases except when both \( P \) and \( Q \) are false. 5. **Conclusion**: - Therefore, the statement "Ananya is beautiful or 165 centimetres tall" is false when both \( P \) and \( Q \) are false. This means: - Ananya is not beautiful (i.e., \( P \) is false). - Ananya is not 165 centimetres tall (i.e., \( Q \) is false). ### Final Answer: The statement "Ananya is beautiful or 165 centimetres tall" is false when Ananya is neither beautiful nor 165 centimetres tall. ---
